Top Atlantic Beach Hotel Reviews

Hotel Alice At Atlantic Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great! Great location and great hotel to bring your dog!"

Atlantic Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We got a 2 bedroom villa and it was very spacious. Check in was smooth and timely. Villa was clean and orderly. Everything we needed was already available kitchen wise(excluding food of course). The only issue we had was the build up in the coffee maker. You could tell it hadn’t been cleaned in a while but this was easily fixed with some vinegar and hot water cycles. Something easily overlooked but also easily fixed. We took our 2 children and family pet and we had an amazing time. We will definitely be returning and recommending to our family and friends."

8/10 Good

"It was an overall good stay, accommodations for 2 people, clean and close to everything. The only drawback was there was no ramp access to upper rooms, and no ramp access to beach. So be prepared if u have kids or a lot of things to carry."
